Castel Gandolfo Pontifical Villas (near Rome) Entrance Ticket

The Pope's Summer Getaway,
Castel Gandolfo

Introducing Castel Gandolfo, the summer residence of the Roman Pope for centuries. Once part of Rome, it is now owned by the Vatican. In the 12th century, the castle of the Gandolfi family was built, and it is now called Castel Gandolfo or Gandolfo Castle. It is famous as one of the most scenic places in Italy, so we highly recommend you visit it.

Pretty Alleys Everywhere

Castel Gandolfo is so beautiful that the road to the Papal Palace itself is so beautiful that you can feel happy just by walking. The panoramic Lake Albano in front of you is really beautiful to see. You can go up to the Papal Palace while watching people swimming, canoeing, and boating on the lake.


Meet Every Corner

You can explore every corner of the Castel Gandolfo Papal Palace with an audio guide. If you see the summer villa, you will know why the Pope used this place as a summer vacation spot.

Well-decorated Garden

The garden is also so beautifully decorated that it is a healing place. Many people who come to Castel Gandolfo do not visit the summer villa, but I highly recommend that you take a close look at the inside of the summer villa and the garden!
